Background

This was the colorization unit of Modern Film Sales Corporation.

(1925-1926)

Nickname: "Multicolored Sunburst"

Logo: Several sunbursts are seen stacked on a dark blue background, which has the words "the end" on it in white lettering. The sunbursts are pinkish in nature, with the smaller sunburst dark pink, while the biggest is nearly white. This is stacked atop a pinkish background with the word "A KROMOCOLOR (Title below) PRODUCTION" in black Art-Deco type. The rest of the logo has been cut off. Possibly, this may not actually be a logo, but something else. Kromocolor could have been the film process used. Modern Film Sales bought some of the old Mutt and Jeff cartoons, added soundtracks, and colorized them.

Variant: A B&W version exists.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The ending music of a Mutt and Jeff cartoon.

Availability: Seen on 16mm and 35mm colorized prints of several Mutt and Jeff cartoons including "Westward Whoa!", "The Globe Trotters", and "Slick Sleuths".

Editor's Note: None.
